aMalvar means that interpolation using the algorithm of Malvar et al. (2004) is performed.

bRed means that bilinear interpolation of red Bayer pixels is performed; blue and green pixels are discarded.

cIdentity means that no interpolation is performed; image is returned as a monochrome JPEG that was compressed from raw data with as-is Bayer values (because the Bayer filters are transparent at near-IR wavelengths; see Bell et al. 2017, Fig. 3).

dGreen means that bilinear interpolation of green Bayer pixels is performed; red and blue pixels are discarded.

eBlue means that bilinear interpolation of blue Bayer pixels is performed; red and green pixels are discarded.
